'Tis the Season... for Scams
As we race towards the holidays and year-end, we are being alerted to multiple scams involving consumers and small businesses. Scams are a nationwide problem often asking for bank account, financial data and/or personal information. There have also been an increasing number of scam phone calls (robo-calls) to both personal and business phones.
In particular, we want to warn you NOT TO OPEN any recent email from FADA President Ted Smith that refer to "invoices due." If you receive such an email, please delete it immediately. If you have any questions, contact
members@flada.org
before opening anything suspicious.
FADA encourages you to be diligent and to alert your staff members and employees to be overly attentive to probable scams and fraud. If you suspect fraud via any electronic or telephonic communication, please contact your local law enforcement and report these instances.
